Let \(G\) be a finite Abelian group of order \(n\) and Davenport constant \(d\). A well known result of W.~Gao states that any sequence of elements of \(G\) with length \(n+d-1\) has an \(n\)-subsequence summing to \(0\). The authors investigate generalizations to this result in the non-Abelian case.
